Tricoter by Foolish Operations

Foolish Operation’s vision is about creating togetherness. Their mandate is to create dance experiences that welcome babies, toddlers and their families in performances and workshops filled with irresistible invitations to participate. Collaborating with artists, educators and specialists to spark inspiration between communities, disciplines and fields of knowledge, using play in art-making as the glue, they share values are togetherness, health, and learning.

Tricoter re-creates the spirit of a knitting circle. The dance winds and unwinds through and around the public who are arranged in the round. Yarn is integrated into the choreography and weaves an architecture that links public and place to the dancer. While dancing, the yarn gets tangled in a large knot of bright colours. We experience Tricoter through play, curiosity, and exploration of belonging to a community.
